Guest Reviews
- George (10/5): - Amazing property and staff.
- Marco (10/5): - Great place!!
- Antoni (10/5): - Gorgeous property. Excellent service
- Elisha (10/5): - This so the best place I’ve ever stayed. It was for our honeymoon and we could not have been happier. They make you feel like family. It’s top quality and it’s beautiful. It’s in the jungle, we loved it so much. So many animals, a sloth in the tree above our private hot springs pool. It was a trip to remember!
- Denise (10/5): - It is a beautiful magical place, I loved my stay here. I wish I could rewind back time and go back !
- Ceely (10/5): Lux - Amazing!!!! We loved every minute of our stay here. So lux!
- Jennifer (10/5): - Wonderful service in a beautiful setting. Great food and excursion options. Highly recommend.
- Maria (10/5): - Exceptional resort with friendly and helpful staff
- William (10/5): - A
- Elizabeth (10/5): - All of the staff was welcoming and willing to offer assistance at all times. There was always staff eager to point out the sloths and monkeys in the trees.
They always remembered our names and what we were doing the day before and would follow up to find out how our day went. The standouts for our trip were Anthony (front desk) as well as Carlos and Christopher (our servers at breakfast).
We were enjoying a soak in one of the hot springs and a sloth with a baby came down from the tree next to us about 15 feet away. It was the most incredible experience.
The food was expensive, but there was the option to go into town and enjoy local restaurants, which we did a few times. It was nice to walk around downtown, even safe at night.
The private plunge pool was an amazing experience, especially when it rained, which was everyday.
I would love to come back again, worth every penny. Thanks to the staff, it truly was a pura vida experience.
- Michael (10/5): - One of the most beautiful grounds I have ever seen in a resort! Food was amazing! Beautiful pools and scenery!
- Dianna (10/5): - The most beautiful resort we’ve ever stayed out. Perfect place to get away and relax!
- lauren (10/5): - Nayara Springs is the most exquisite hotel I’ve ever been to. I would 10/10 recommend this hotel. Grounds are breathtaking, the room and bed are luxurious and the staff is so kind and knowledgeable. Don’t leave Costa Rica without staying here and enjoying their beautiful hot springs beneath the sloths and toucans. My boyfriend and I were comped a free night after a slight mixup. They went out of their way to really make us feel special. Their service, in addition to everything else mentioned is why they are a 5 star rating! Should be 10 stars!
- Michael (10/5): - Everything about Nayara Springs was outstanding. From the beautiful grounds to the great food and the exceptional staff.
- Adam (10/5): - Gorgeous property, incredibly friendly and helpful staff, fantastic food and drinks, and amazing room! Free breakfast was great, you could order multiple items, bread and fresh fruit, juices…the whole nine yards. The onsite bars and restaurants were excellent, a bit on the pricey side but not outrageously so. Went into town in La Fortuna one night but stayed onsite the rest of the time. Wish we could have stayed longer, would definitely come back!
- Jessica (10/5): - Nayara Gardens/Springs was amazing!
- Olivia (10/5): - Beautiful and impeccably clean property! Every corner feels like paradise. What really stood out was how genuinely friendly and welcoming everyone at the resort was—from the front desk to the restaurant staff. Their warmth made the experience even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious escape!
- William (10/5): - The property, room and staff were outstanding. Everyone was very friendly and always went out of their way to make every accommodation.
Room was services twice a day, restaurants were good to very good.
The grounds are essentially on a very steep hill, making a bit difficult to walk to various locations on the grounds, but could get a golf cart to bring you wherever you wanted fairly quickly. They have over 100 carts.
You can even get breakfast to the room and laundry service at no extra cost.
Although there is no tennis, pickle ball courts, mini golf or shuffleboard, the resort itself is second to none.
- Amber (10/5): - Amazing property, excellent food, highly recommend.
- Joshua (10/5): - Amazing Best stay ever
- Michelle (10/5): - Exceeded our expectations! Beautiful with amazing staff! Every comfort and detail was well thought out!
- Clara (10/5): Amazing stay, we will return again - The Staff was very friendly, tourist oriented and polite.
The room “villa 13” in Nayara Springs was spacious, clean and beautifully decorated.
Having our own thermal pool outside our bedroom we didn’t want to leave to do any other activities.
We tried all the restaurants and lived the food and service.
We will definitely return.
- Rachel (10/5): - We have stayed at Nayara 4 times. Once at the tented camp and 3 times at Nayara springs. This trip we brought family because we wanted them to see how amazing its is and they were blown away. The grounds of the property are gorgeous, you feel like you are in paradise the minute you arrive. The customer service is beyond, they are the nicest staff you will ever meet, they go above and beyond to make anything You could want or need happen.
- Matthew (10/5): - The nicest resort I have ever been to. The staff was amazing and very accommodating & even helped me get a new rental car. I got a 2 hour massage treatment & it was amazing! Close to all of the excursions, all the food was great, & spent a bunch of time at the swim up pool. There was even a sloth that was just hanging out in the trees above the pool every day. Will definitely go back!
- Karlye (10/5): - The pictures of the property do not do it justice! The rainforest is amazing and the resort has done an amazing job preserve its beauty. We stayed in the villas and everything was so luxurious. The little things they did were awesome, even the free laundry that was done within 24 hours. The staff is so friendly and very accommodating. The restaurants were all unique and tasted amazing. There was one we didn’t know was a 7 course meal and probably would’ve avoided since it wasn’t our style. That was the most expensive restaurant. This is not all inclusive so be prepared to spend a good amount of money for drinks, dinner and lunch. $20 drinks and $30-$50 meals. While expensive, everything was a delight. We plan to come back!!!
- David (10/5): - What a place this is. Service is top notch. Everyone's always ready to help you, the place is in an immaculate state. Spotless rooms, gardens are beautiful, food was amazing. You won't regret paying to stay here. You want to experience quietness,
- Feather (10/5): Heart of the jungle - The most incredible resort we have ever experienced ❤️
- Tammy (10/5): - The property was absolute gorgeous! The staff is very friendly and helpful. Room was fantastic. Excellent dining options. Overall wonderful if a bit pricey!
- GLENN (10/5): - Incredible villas in the rainforest. Paradise.’
- Stephen (10/5): The Best - best place I've ever stayed. Loved every moment.
- angel (10/5): - My husband and I stayed at this property and fell in absolute love! The staff was all amazing and the property was clean and luxurious. We will definitely be back.
- Stephen (10/5): - Friendly and professional staff. Amazing views and excellent dining options. No requests were too small or too large for the staff to handle. Onsite wildlife was abundant yet not intrusive. Perfect place to see the area in style.
- Leigh (10/5): - Amazing place! We loved everything about it!
- Tracy (10/5): - Top notch in every area. Everything was amazing!!
- KIRAN (10/5): - everything was just perfect.
- Christa (10/5): - Nayara Springs was hands down the very best hotel we’ve stayed at anywhere in the world. Its attention to detail, ability to create private, quiet spaces within a large resort, and the incredibly high level of attention from staff are unparalleled. Our villa was immaculately clean and well-appointed, the grounds well tended, the wildlife ample, the hot pools and restaurants outstanding, and the free laundry, drinks and snacks the icing on the cake. THIS place is special and worthy of your time.
- Daniel (10/5): Amazing property, accommodation, service, and food - Really felt like staying in the rainforest, but with excellent food and service. Villa was very private.
Not a wildlife preserve, but we did see monkeys, a mom and baby sloth, birds, and lizards on the expansive property.
The geothermal pools and the use of all 3 Nayara restaurants and facilities were major plusses that probably aren't emphasized enough.
- Jorge (10/5): - Excellent
- david (10/5): - Simply the Best. Personalized service meets paradise at Nayara. The facilities are in keeping with the natural beauty of the rainforest giving a feeling of complete serenity. Aesthetically pleasing and functional, restaurants overlook the volcano, the pools are surrounded by lushness. Have never experienced such a high level of service anywhere. Rooms are spacious and well appointed offering every convenience: outdoor hot spring pool, double indoor and outdoor showers, canopy beds with mosquito nets (not necessary but very romantic), fruits and flowers changed daily, kettle, coffee machine, areas are well lit with enough space for storage. Swimming pools and hot springs are dotted throughout the property. The quality of food is of a high level and everything was prepared to our specifications. Special mention to Manuel at the front desk who made our stay, Erick our server at Ayla a great human, went the extra mile, and Daniel our driver who was so patient and informative, he made our long transit a complete joy. Can't wait to return.
- Susan (10/5): - It was an exceptional property in every aspect of it. The Villa was phenomenal. I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay.
- Andreas (10/5): - Great location to relax. Very accommodating staff.
- John (10/5): Minnesota Visits the Rain Forest - Amazing place. Everything was top notch and very very good. I would recommend to anyone BUT….food and drinks are very pricey, thermal tubs attached to rooms are dirty and full of vegetation (never cleaned while we were there for four days) and plant material. Don’t order breakfast to your room, it gets cold easily. Breakfast (included) was very good with great options, but eat at the restaurant if you want it hot. Overall Service is excellent, entire property atmosphere is great, wine pairing meal was outstanding. The property (both meals, room, and drinks) prices itself out of being someplace I would go back to again.
- Gabriele (10/5): - The perfect place to celebrate all the special moments in your life. The property is amazing, and the staff is first class.
- Kristin (10/5): - Top-notch property!!!!
- Bradley (10/5): - Everything was perfect. Amazing people! Highly recommend to everyone. You will literally want for nothing. Everything is taken care of for you.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Serene, peaceful, elegant, delicious
- Glenda Ivis De la (10/5): - I don’t have enough good things to say about this place and the staff. From the moment we arrived to moment we left everything was absolutely perfect. Customer service goes constantly above and beyond to make sure everything is nothing but perfect. The level of detail, the ability to predict our needs, the quality of each service, the natural beauty of the place and its people, I can’t stop praising this place. We are coming back for another retreat in direct contact with nature in this beautiful resort. Thank you to each member of the team for making this experience the best we have had so far (and we travel quite often). See you soon. PURA VIDA!!
- CAROLINE (8/5): - Beautiful grounds and views of the volcano, great pool and hot spring options. Food is average. Nayara springs villas could use a bit of an upgrade on the finishes for the price point. Staff and service is wonderful
- Michael (10/5): - Amazing the service was incredible
- Amy (10/5): - Absolutely beautiful property, extremely nice room and everyone was super friendly and helpful. Great tours and booking was easy
- Tiara (10/5): - Nayara Springs was exceptional. We stayed here for my birthday celebration for a 3 night treat and a treat it certainly was. Where do i begin?! The property itself was heavenly, I call it my heaven on earth. The staff were friendly, accommodating and pleasant. And the food! Every.single.restaurant. was top notch! For breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Consistency at its best. The spa was an experience to remember. It was absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to return again and again.
- Ryan (10/5): - Absolutely stunning scenery, all of the staff are so nice and helpful and really want to get to know you. The food was good no matter where you went.
- Kirsten (10/5): - Excellent in every way
- James (10/5): - Top of the line experience. Service, ammenities, beauty, food, and overall experience is well worth the money. Stayed 4 nights during our honeymoon and they went the extra mile to make sure it was special, including complimentary chocolates, champagne, and roses/decorations to celebrate. We are not typically luxury resort customers so sometimes it felt like we should not need such high quality of service, but we learned to love it.
The villa was the best accommodation we have ever experienced. Loved how spacious it was and the outdoor showers. The thermal spring pool was especially awesome during a heavy rainstorm or to soak in for a short bit to relax your muscles after a long day of trekking. Did not feel a need to experience the other local hot springs because we had one right in our room.
It was great being able to access the other two resorts on the campus and indulge in their pools and restaurants, Ayla being our favorite. Keep in mind the campus is on a hillside and there is a lot of elevation to cover to get from Springs to the Tented Camp, but you can easily call for golf cart transportation to take you anywhere you want - just make sure to budget that time into your schedule.
We loved it and would highly recommend for an unforgettable couples experience!
- Sabrina (10/5): - My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary and Nayara lived up to expectations. The grounds were so beautiful, definitely an oasis! We did not like the food though… but it was really easy to catch a taxi into downtown La Fortuna and find something delicious! We really enjoyed our stay!
- Patricia (10/5): - Gorgeous property, pleasant surprises around each corner, beautifully landscaped, so much wildlife on property, 3 spas, excellent dining options, many pools and hot springs to choose from, gorgeous accommodations, loved that the mini bar stuff was free, the people were friendly, informed, helpful and professional. I would highly recommend for anyone traveling to Costa Rica. Lots of nearby excursions as well! Excellent service.
- NICHOLAS (10/5): - So much to do on the property, every restaurant experience was better than the last. We loved our wine expert Leo who knew our tastes better than we did!
- David (10/5): - Awesome place to stay
- Erik (10/5): - Nayara Springs is truly the finest resort we have visited, in an amazingly beautiful area of Costa Rica. The villa is outstanding; beautiful, perfectly designed, and comfortable. The thermal feed pool outside the room is surrounded by lush landscaping and is the perfect morning wake up and late night relaxation.
The staff are always ready to assist and pleasant in every part of the resort, restaurants, excursions, and Spa.
In fact, we got engaged while off property and when we returned the staff decorated our room with rose petals.
The food is exquisite! Fresh, creative, and healthy. The French Toast is the best in the world!!!
The grounds are natural and a true jungle. We saw four different sloughs during our stay the resort.
Nayara Springs is truly a top 10 resort in the world. We will be back soon!!!
- Aimee (10/5): Go to Nayara Springs - This resort was simply amazing. We loved every minute. Specifically, what was great? The private plunge pools, the beds with netting, the gigantic bathroom, the outdoor shower, the service of everyone from front desk, to restaurants, to golf cart drivers, the food, the hot springs, the regular pools, the wildlife. It was just all amazing. We'll be back!
- Nadira (10/5): - I adored everything about this hotel. For those seeking a tranquil and relaxing retreat, this is the destination of choice. The staff exceeded expectations in fulfilling every request. The hotel was impeccably maintained, and the natural hot spring was extraordinary. :)

- Jeniffer (10/5): - Es un sueño de hotel. Todo perfectamente pensado. El servicio, el lugar, las amenidades 5 estrellas. Volvería sin pensarlo.
- juan (10/5): - During our stay at Nayara Hotel in Costa Rica, we experienced nothing short of perfection. From the moment we arrived, Nelson at the front desk provided us with a warm and genuine welcome, making us feel instantly at home. His attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond ensured our stay was memorable.
Dining at the Terraza Restaurant was an extraordinary experience. The waitstaff were exceptionally attentive and courteous, making each meal a delight. The food was simply outstanding, with every dish prepared to perfection and bursting with flavor. The culinary excellence combined with impeccable service truly made our dining experience unforgettable.
Additionally, our time spent at the Termals was elevated by the excellent service from Cristina, the bartender. Her skill and friendliness created a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere, adding an extra layer of luxury to our stay.
Nayara Hotel exceeded all our expectations, offering an exquisite blend of luxury, comfort, and top-notch service. We can’t wait to return to this paradise.
- rajeev (10/5): - One of the best properties I have stayed at . Staff were amazing . Very clean and beautifully built with close attention to details . Lot of dining options including lot of options for vegetarians as well .
- Russ (10/5): Beautiful resort with the best of hospitality - Best resort ever-stayed there 7 times now
- Jennifer (10/5): - We had a wonderful time at Nayara Springs. From the minute we walked in to the moment we left, we were met with superb, outstanding customer service from every single staff member there from the front desk, to the golf cart drivers to the restaurant hostesses and waiters. This hotel definitely stands out from others because of the service. This isnt the place for parties or entertainment but it is top tier for relaxation and nature. The grounds are stunning. Highly recommend and cannot wait to stay again!
- Caleb (10/5): - This was hands down the best place I have ever stayed both in its location and facilities and the staff. They were flawless and we felt like royalty. We would consider coming back to La Fortuna just to stay at this place.
- Danielle Lori (10/5): - Nayara Springs is amazing! We LOVED our room, we loved the food, we loved all of the staff, we loved how every time we left our room it was a new adventure. We saw sloths, an agouti, tons of birds and lizards, butterflies, and a raccoon all without leaving the resort. I cannot say enough nice things about how wonderful Nayara Springs is. It was our anniversary and the staff made it so special! We loved every minute of this trip!
- seliah (10/5): - Best hotel with great amenities. Worth the $$
- Daniel (2/5): - Terrible customer service had a last-minute emergency and asked to rebook or receive a credit in the hotel simply said no have a great day. Definitely will not be rebooking when we go back to Costa Rica. Will find another hotel.
- Calvin (10/5): - This is the best resort we have stayed at. We went to the Four Season after and Nayara was the highlight of our trip..
- Tiffany (10/5): Great Escape - The most amazing place my husband and I ever stayed at. It was such clean and beautiful resort with the happiest and attentitive staff. We were treated like royalty the entire time. The food was outstanding as well.
- Shimaila (10/5): - Stunning resort with a fantastic range of dining options, pools and tranquil thermal springs. Possibly one of the best views of Arenal via one of the pools/bars too!
The staff were very friendly and attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms (Kings Springs villa) was huge with a double indoor and outdoor shower. Comfortable beds, great breakfast options. I love that you can visit other areas within the resort (Springs, Gardens and tented camps).
I would love to visit again!
- Wendy (10/5): - The grounds are beautiful. The staff is friendly and helpful. Everything about this place is extraordinary.
- Cory (10/5): - Maybe the nicest staff and property I have ever experienced. Thank you for a once in a lifetime dream vacation come true.
- Guillermo (10/5): - Great
- Jennifer (10/5): Perfect Honeymoon or Couples Retreat 10/10 - Nayara Springs (Adults Only) was an absolute oasis nestled in the rainforest. The service and attention to detail were top tier and we truly felt appreciated and pampered. I have gone on many vacations and this one has topped the list as far as unique, tranquil and beautiful. The flowers and foliage were breathtaking at the resort and the entire resort is planned so thoughtfully keeping the rainforest at the forefront. Even though the resort was at full capacity, we truly felt like we were in our own world. The villa was amazing and the natural hot spring jacuzzi on our patio with relaxion bed and hammock were just what we needed. Note, the resort is very hilly, but one call and there is a chauffered golf cart ready to take you anywhere you please, whether is it is the spa, yoga studio, restaurant(s) or receiption. Again, cannot say enough.
If you are looking for a relaxing honeymoon or anniversay please conisder Nayara Springs.
- Jason (10/5): - This place is amazing! We stayed on the springs side and the private pool is amazing. The food and drinks are outstanding. Truly a 5 star.
- Lisa (10/5): - Nayara is absolutely gorgeous. I can't say enough about the staff. They do everything they can to ensure the very best stay possible. Everyone is so kind. Thank you Nayara.
- Helen (10/5): - Incredible place to stay! You need not leave the property to see sloths, monkeys, lots of birds, frogs, and amazing flora. The hot thermal pools are also fantastic and quiet. You need not go to a place for hot springs when it’s right there. The staff are all so nice and the breakfast is delicious.
- Jenny (10/5): - Beautiful and peaceful facility. wonderful customer service would give them 10’stars if I could
- Michael (10/5): - Our stay was outstanding! Definitely five stars. I’d like to acknowledge a few staff members as Fernanda who helped us experience an easy check-in process. Nicolas, Veronica and Joseph always were so helpful during the breakfast and dinner time, offering us excellent recommendations from the menu. Karina was amazing as well during checkout process.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Pura Vida! - My wife and I loved our recent stay at Nayara Springs! We stayed in one of the Villa (Spring) rooms. The villa is a large stand alone unit tucked into the jungle. The unit had a king bed, living area, work area, two vanities, indoor and outdoor showers, and a large deck with a private natural spring pool. We felt that the room was always very clean.
The campus is beautiful and massive. We frequently saw wildlife including sloths and tucans. Most of the campus is on about a 10-20 degree slope. Due to this you will find most people are getting carted to each destination on campus. The staff is extremely friendly and responsive and it only takes about 5 minutes or so to call for one.
Our favorite of the 3 pools was the tented camp area pool (at the top of the campus) due to the architecture, views and food.
I would recommend making a dinner reservation for each day you are there prior to your check in. We ended up booking everything when we got there and ended up having to eat at 8:30 some nights. It was fine for us since we typically eat late but if that is unacceptable they do provide room service. My favorite dish was the block of cheese pasta at the Italian restaurant.
The only excursion we did while at Nayara Springs was a night hike. Our guide was amazing and we saw multiple frogs and insects. We also did the volcanic mud massage, it was unique and great. The couples massage room was open air and we list to the sounds of the animals and jungle while being pampered.
- Jennifer (10/5): - A true 5 star resort. The private thermal pool provided hours of relaxation. There was major construction going on by amor loco restaurant and it was LOUD. I can’t fathom how they were still booking the rooms around that area. They tried to put us in one but we asked to move. I thought that was bizarre. If you have an open room without noise, why not put us there to begin with. We ended up sitting around for a couple of hours until the room was ready. The Mediterranean restaurant at nayara tented camp (Ayla I think is the name) had just revamped the menu and we had dinner there, it wasn’t great, lunch was terrific though. The sushi was decent at Asia Luna. Amor loco was good, service was great. We dined at travesia in town 3x. It was excellent. They cleaned our pool while we were there and the new water pumped in was much hotter. We loved it. There’s a faucet to make it cooler if it’s too hot. If the water is only tepid and you like hot, it wouldn’t hurt to ask them to change it, it only takes a half hour or so. Our personal host was very nice but it would have been great if she was reachable via WhatsApp. This is pretty standard with other 5 star resorts. If we were out of our room and we needed something or had a question for her, we had to hunt down a phone to reach the front desk. They had a message section in the App but I never received a response. The grounds are fantastic, you never have to leave. We recommend and we will be back!
- Courtney (10/5): - Fantastic property and experience! Can’t wait to go back! Everything was excellent and beautiful hotel!
- Daniel (10/5): -
My wife and I stayed at Nayara Springs for our 5 year anniversary in November 2023. It has taking a while to find the right words to describe our experience there. If you want to go back to the days where the service industry was exceptional and you are treated like you are the most important person on the property. This resort is where you want to be! Our experience began before we even arrived. From the customer service rep Johel who assisted me in making our transportation, dinner, spa, and excursion reservations to the staff that greets you at the resort. Upon arrival the staff was exceptional!! The warmth you felt walking into the lobby was infectious. The drivers who pick you up and drive you around the property were interactive, attentive, and always looking for little critters to show you. Sebastian, Daniel (Blanco), Alexander, Isaac, Diego, Larry, Jonathan and the rest of the staff were amazing!!! Our tour guides Isidro and driver Jean Carlos were one of the best highlights of the trip!! Cannot wait to finish our “Check” list on our next trip. Pablo, Luis and their driver that took us on the white water rafting excursion were exceptional!! The food and bars were amazing! Thank you for your hospitality, going above and beyond & even creating friendships for when we return in the future to see these wonderful people & this beautiful place again. Pura vida!!!
PS - Already rebooked in September 2024!!
- Josh (10/5): - This place is amazing! Makes you fall in love with Costa Rica.
- Linawati (10/5): Amazing stay at Nayara - The customer service was top notch. From receptionist to house keeping to golf cart drivers, they all commit to provide great customer experience.
The resort is surrounded by rainforest, we heard birds and howler monkey in early morning which is very cool. We saw sloths and some wild animals in our nature walk at the resort.
Hotspring is nice too. Loved to dip your sore body after day activities in the hotspring.
- Colleen (10/5): - Absolute Paradise! We could only get 2 nights and didn’t leave the resort for 48 hours. It is so beautiful and everyone is helpful and friendly. We had the couples spa treatment which was amazing! You must stay here if you ever go to Costa Rica! I hope we can come back.
- Joseph (10/5): - An amazing room and grounds. Everything was fantastic and the tour guides were exceptional. We needed to cool down the spa but it was taken care of immediately. The food was great and a good mix.
- Yosuan (10/5): - Everything was amazing. Property was world class. The people were excellent and made us feel very welcomed. Would recommend to everyone. 5 star.

- Wesley (10/5): - Wonderful stay at Nayara Springs! The driver who picked us up, Michael, was fantastic. Our personal host, Alfredo, provided superb service and always projected a genuine willingness to help. Jeffrey (Ayla) and Joseph (Mis Amores) were excellent. Carrito drivers Fabian, Blanco (Daniel), and others were always friendly. And thank you, Saidy and team - as someone who pays attention to cleanliness, I also want to highlight how impressed we were that the cleaning staff cleaned under the rugs and changed the outside pillow cases. They made me feel that the place was as clean as our own home.
The great service at Nayara Resort stands out as does the fresh quality of food and vegetables. In order to make it even better, the resort could think about directly highlighting its sustainability initiatives to its guests; I read a bit about them in one of the LHW books but don’t see them mentioned at all on the actual resort. Signs or information cards to show off all that you are doing is one way to inform guests of your efforts and to attract new guests. One improvement might be to review the amount of salt in the hot Asia Luna dishes.
Thank you again to the Nayara team!
- Darsi (10/5): - Absolutely stunning setting. Loved the private pool. The room is pure luxury. Found a red eyed tree frog on a plant in the outside shower our first night there. Great food. Kind helpful workers-the girls at the front desk helped book tours very easily. Fabian (hope I got his name right!) took us on a private sloth tour around the resort and was all smiles even in the pouring rain! Yoga was awesome. Laura led most classes while I was there as well as an additional Wednesday evening conscious movement and sound therapy class. What a treat!!! Such wellness therapies are something I look for in a resort and they do not go unnoticed or unappreciated! Would definitely return.
- Kristin Renee (10/5): - Had an amazing stay at Nayara. Each and every one of the staff was extremely kind, welcoming, and attentive to everything we needed, no matter the time. They are extremely accommodating when it comes to working with your preferred itinerary. There’s so much to do and explore for those who are on-the-go kind of travelers and there’s also a sense of peace and serenity for those that just want to relax. All the facilities were very clean. The room was exquisite — your own plunge pool, your own outdoor shower. You feel a sense of solitude and privacy as if you’re in your own little world. Such a dreamy romantic getaway. It was absolutely worth the price staying here. Don’t hesitate to book.
